C chord always gives me grief (and the F chord too). I did learn after time that I was doing two things wrong. First, if you’re muting the strings it might mean you’re not pressing down hard enough to get a clear note. I’m guilty of this. Second, I’ve learn to use my thumb on the back of the neck for better finger leverage. I took notice that my fingers were slightly touching the next string; thus, muting them. The thumb leverage helped making the fingers more perpendicular to the strings. I don’t know if this will help you; but, you can definitely learn from my mistakes. Good luck!
